Default Themes • Wedges Documentation

Wedges supports dark and light themes out of the box. By default, the light theme is applied if no specific theme classes are added. The default theme can be changed with wedgesTW configuration.

Using Default Themes

To apply a dark theme, simply add the dark class to a parent element, usually the html or body. For other themes, add the appropriate class, like light for light theme.

<html class="dark">
  ...
</html>

This approach enables the dark theme for the entire app. To apply different themes to individual sections, add the corresponding theme class to each section's container.

<html class="dark">
  ...
  <div class="light">...</div>
  <div class="orange-blue">...</div>
  <!-- custom theme -->
</html>
